Function OpenRootDir

internal/safepaths/root.go:61–69

OpenRootDir creates and opens a user-selected directory as a rooted filesystem. The selected path may contain symbolic links; child paths beneath the opened root may not.

(path string, perm os.FileMode)

// The selected path may contain symbolic links; child paths beneath the opened
// root may not.
func OpenRootDir(path string, perm os.FileMode) (*Root, error) {
	if path == "" {
		path = "."
	}
	if err := os.MkdirAll(path, perm); err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}
	return OpenRoot(path)
}

// OpenFile creates a file without traversing symbolic links below its rooted
// parent. Creation is always exclusive, including when replace is false.
